Animator: KingIke75 Technique: 2D Computer animation
This animation is actually a product from a Youtube channel that I'm a part of, and I thought it'd be neat to show it off. Our animator really did a good job here, with the motion and fluidity of the combat, and you really feel every hit that happens. This is one of my favorite animations on our channel, just because so much is happening in the fight and it keeps it all exciting.
Animator: Nick Park Technique: Claymation
Wallace and Gromit is a fantastic claymation series, and it sits in many peoples' hearts. I saw this when I was a little kid for the first time, and I always loved these shorts. The shorts are done with pure claymation, with all the characters having specific models used. Because it's animated in real life, the animators have to make sure the lights and cameras are perfectly positioned, to give off that real feeling of accurate lighting and a good perspective shot for the viewers.
Animator: Chuck Jones Technique: Hand-drawn
The Looney Toons shorts are classics known by everyone, and these moments are some of the most famous. Chuck Jones' hand-drawn frames still hold up to this day, with every character having exaggerated movements, expressions, and colors so you get exactly an idea of what's going on, and they always manage to tell a full, funny, entertaining story in a short 5-7minute span.
Animator: John Lasseter Technique: 3D computer animated
Besides the famous movie itself, this scene from Toy Story really shows off good lighting techniques as Woody and Buzz argue under the truck. I first saw this movie when I was a little kid, and I always loved this scene, mostly because of how funny it was. Looking at it now, I can really appreciate the 3D animation, especially for the time.
Animator: Ben Boquelect Technique: Computer animated, 2D-3D, live-action, claymation, puppetry, stop-motion
This is one of my all-time favorite scenes. The Amazing World of Gumball is famous among many modern cartoon fans for how flawlessly it blends different animation styles together. Every character has their own unique style being used, be it claymation, puppetry, 3D CGI, or hand-drawn sketches. Why I love this scene so much is because of how brilliantly it deconstructs the animation process the creators go through with every episode. First, we see the 2-Dimensional characters losing their color and quality control, and soon after, the entire 3D-modelled world (literally) begins to fall apart, with the surroundings being de-rendered, until it eventually goes back into storyboarding, and then just post-it notes with even the voice acting being left unfinished. I love this show, just because of how dang clever it is.

Anyone who's seen Shrek knows this song, and chances are, you've heard it even if you haven't seen the movie. I really like the humorous drawings the animator decided to give every lyric, and not one feels too slow or out-of-place. I actually like this song unironically, hearing it for the first time before it even became an internet meme.
